Sir Walter Raleigh Sailing in the Lowlands.  
Showing how the famous Ship called the sweet Trinity was taken by a false Galley, and how it was again restored by the craft of a little Sea-boy, who sunk the Galley; as the following Song will declare.  
To the Tune of, The Sailing in the Lowlands.  

SIr Walter Raleigh has built a ship  
in the netherlands,  
Sir Walter Raleigh has built a ship  
in the Neatherlands?  
And it is called the sweet Trinity,  
And was taken by the false Gallaly,  
sailing in the Lowlands:   

Is there never a Seaman bold  
in the Neatherlands:  
Is there never a Seamen bold  
in the Neatherlands?  
That will go take this false Gallaly,  
And to redeem the sweet Trinity,  
sailing in the Lowlands.   

Then spoke the little Ship-boy  
in the Neatherlands,  
Then spoke the little Ship-boy  
in the Neatherlands,  
Master, master, what will you give me,  
And I will take this false Gallaly,  
And release the sweet Trinity,  
sailing in the Lowlands.   

I'll give thee gold, and I'll give thee fee  
in the Neatherlands,  
I'll give thee gold, and I'll give thee fee  
in the Neatherlands;  
And my eldest daughter thy wife shall be,  
sailing in the Lowlands.   

He set his breast, and away he did swim  
in the Neatherlands,  
He set his breast, and away did swim  
in the Neatherlands.  
Until he came to the false Gallaly,  
sailing in the Lowlands,   

HE had an Augor fit for the once,  
in the Neatherlands,  
He had an Augor fit for the once,  
in the Neatherlands;  
The which will boar  
Fifteen good holes at once,  
sailing in the Lowlands  
Some were at Cards, and at somt Dice  
in the Neatherlands,  
Some were at Cards, and some at Dice  
in the Neatherlands,  
Until the salt water flashed in their eyes,  
sailing in the Lowlands.  
Some cut their hats, and some cut their caps  
in the Neatherlands;  
Some cut their hats, and some cut their caps  
in the Neatherlands,  
For to stop the salt-water gaps,  
sailing in the Lowlands.   

He set his breast and away did swim  
in the Neatherlands,  
He set his breast and away did swim  
in the Neatherlands;  
Until he came to his own ship again,  
sailing in the Lowlands,   

I have done the work I promised to do  
in the Neatherlands,  
I have done the work I promised to do  
in the Neatherlands.  
For I habe sunk the false Gallaly,  
And released the sweet Trinity,  
sailing in the Lowlands.   

You promised me gold, and you promised me, fee  
in the Neatherlands,  
You promised me gold, and you promised me fee,  
in the Neatherlands,  
Your eldest daughter my wife she must be,  
sailing in the Lowlands.  
You shall have gold, and you shall have fee  
in the Neatherlands,  
You shall have gold, and you shall have a fee  
in the Neatherlands.  
But my eldest daughter your wife shall never be  
for sailing in the Lowlands.  
Then fare you well, you cozening Lord  
in the Neatherlands,  
Then fare you well, you cozening Lord  
in the Neatherlands.  
Seeing you are not so good as your word,  
for sailing in the Lowlands.   

And thus I shall conclude my Song  
of the sailing in the Lowlands,  
And, thus I shall conclude my Song  
of the sailing in the Lowlands;  
Wishing all happiness to all Seamen both  
old & young in their sailing in the Lowlands.
